Mark Steyn knocks it out of the park with this article on the enormous Oil-for-Food scandal at the UN. Unfortunately, it seems no-one cares about the scandal accept Claudia Rosette and a Fox News. And you also have Mark Steyn who sums up the craziness at the UN with this scandal and how ineffective the people at Turtle Bay have become. Check out this snippet:
"The best alternative to the trans‐national jet-set is nothing – or at least nothing formal. When the tsunami hit, the Americans and Australians had troops and relief supplies on the ground within hours and were coordinating their efforts without any global bureaucracy at all. Imagine that: an unprecedented disaster, and yet robust, efficient, compatible, results-oriented nations managed to accomplish more than the international system specifically set up to manage such events. Would it have helped to elect a steering committee with Sudan and Zimbabwe on it? Of course not. But, if the UN wants to hold meetings, hector Washington, steal money and give tacit approval to genocide, let it – and let it sink into irrelevance."
